Advocacy
Track the latest issues and let policy makers know your opinion.
The Nashville Technology Council works to connect and unite the technology industry of Middle Tennessee and sustain a political and economic atmosphere that empowers tech and innovation to thrive.
NTC’s advocacy is conducted through its Advocacy Committee
which is guided by the following principles to:
Promote the growth of technology related jobs in Middle Tennessee;
Spur innovation in a creative and competitive environment that has access to services and capital;
Ensure a marketplace of equal opportunities for an educated workforce; and
Educate our membership about the importance of balanced technology policy and strong relationships with policy makers.
The NTC advocates for policies that nurture expansion and attract both talent and businesses. We invite others to join us in that effort.
The deficit of technology workers is a real problem and the NTC is addressing the shortage of skilled IT workers by building connections between students, IT professionals, and educators.
The NTC works with municipal, and regional, and state economic development efforts to foster growth of tech in area.
Designing a workplace that includes many perspectives makes a team more responsive, respectful and innovative. While much of its work on diversity has been around digital inclusion, enabling all students — regardless of economic background, race, or gender — to learn about technology, the NTC is just beginning its work on diversity in the workplace.
